I love to see things from a different perspective.

Posted August 31st @ 12:20 am by Zach Gilliam

Tonight, the Google News gadget on my iGoogle page popped up a story from Al Jazeera English. Of course this caught my eye and so I read the story - and I enjoyed it.
It wasn’t really about the content for me (even though I did enjoy it!), but it was all about seeing a U.S. […]

Golf soldout to TV

Posted August 13th @ 12:18 am by Zach Gilliam

I won tickets to the PGA Championship at the Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa from Homeland and KYIS fm on Thursday. It was great, the promo ended at 7pm - I rolled in at 6:55pm and they called and told me I won at 7:05pm.

The Championship was amazing. Unfortunately, you can’t have cameras or […]

Christians defined.

Posted June 23rd @ 12:14 pm by Jeff Riles

I am a political science major … just a reminder.
In my class this week we had to make a clear distinction between:
“nominal Christians” and practicing Christians
We defined nominal Christians as those who call themselves a Cristian because there parents were, grandparents were, or because they go to church on Easter or Christmas. They look like […]

Change!

Posted June 13th @ 9:41 pm by Zach Gilliam

Going through a much needed style change right now on the site…I’m sure there will be some weird-ness, so just bear with me.
[Update]: All is finished now. What do you think of the new look?

Being a Teenager - a thing of the past?

Posted June 13th @ 5:28 pm by Jeff Riles

I came across this really cool article on Psychology Today about being a teenager. It makes a pretty interesting argument how especially here in the United States, we have created an unnecessary “extension” of childhood called “adolescence.”
Why is that? I mean after all, in nature - by the time most things are able to reproduce, […]

Unintentional Racism

Posted June 12th @ 11:25 am by Jeff Riles

One of my best friends is Guatemalan. He’s probably one of the smartest people I know. Yet, sometimes - because we are close friends - I make fun of the way he says “physics.”
Another one of my friends, just became an American. He originally was a Mexican citizen. Incredibly intelligent and articulate. Since we are […]

Stop Sucking at Life! Yeah, you …

Posted June 10th @ 11:46 pm by Jeff Riles

I joked with one of my friends the other day and said, “Don’t mess up in life, and everything will be OK. Good advice huh?” To which he replied, “I guess so.”
Sometimes I get caught up with just a whole bunch of bad thoughts - and like a girl, I never let it go.
In fact, […]

“I just wanna be happy”

Posted June 7th @ 8:48 am by Jeff Riles

I remember a speaker one time who was talking about arguing with his wife and he said, “I just wanna be happy.”
Stupid fights happen all the time for me in my life! At work, we have to take an EQ-I (Emotional Quotient) test and I was reminded that my greatest emotional weakness is the fact […]

Simplify Your Life Week - Road Trip

Posted May 25th @ 1:39 am by Jeff Riles

… continuing Simplify Your Life Week
I was telling my friend Zach today at work, I couldn’t decide whether or not to go on a road trip to Dallas to see my friend Jack and some others, or to stay in town and get some things done. The conflict was - Responsibility vs. Rockin’ Good Time […]
